100 Useless Things You Should Do in Life Life Insights
Do some useless things. Even if they are not great and have no social significance, they cannot be regarded as a life pursuit, but at least they are always For a moment, you are liberated from the calculation formula of fame and wealth - even if it is just for a moment.
1. Make a useless friend. Although useless, this uselessness is lifelong.
2. Go to a place that is not the destination. Walk to the top floor of the building you live in, take the last stop on the subway, or walk around the city where you grew up in one day. You will find that you did not understand the city around you before.
3. Collect an old thing that cannot maintain its value. The value of some memories is a secret. Only you know it and can only be treasured by you.
4. Enjoy a meal without nutrition. Put aside the recipes for maintaining health, losing weight, and nourishing the brain and kidneys. Delicious foods only serve to heal the trauma caused by your inability to eat them.
5. Buy something that has no use. Du Lala always go shopping when they are frustrated. This is the same as the bloodletting therapy invented by humans in the Stone Age.
6. Loved someone who could not be with you. Even if it's just for a brief moment.
7. Imagine a piece of clothing that you will never wear. Many girls have imagined wedding dresses for themselves, but they are still signing up for "If You Are the One" today.
8. Challenge a world record that will never be listed in Guinness. For example, I am challenged every day on how to become "the most boring person in the world".
9. Write a novel that will never be published. Just like that period of life in the novel world that you can never realize.
10. Be a cute middle-aged man. A cute girl will not return to 18 years old, but will only return to psychological adolescence. Being cute in middle age is the same as being mature in youth. We just want to separate the era of our birth and fly alone for a while.
11. Wear sunscreen to bask in the sun. The point is not the sun, but the time spent in the sun. There’s no need to be ashamed of wearing sunscreen.
12. When encountering difficulties in life, sleep until you wake up naturally. Compared with the vision in online novels of "sleeping until you wake up naturally, counting money until your hands cramp", the artistic conception in Matsuo Basho's haiku is easier to realize: "The continuous spring rain makes you lazy, and you can't get up unless your old friend comes." Wake up and use a different mindset.
13. Spend a day talking a lot of nonsense. If you can't find someone to talk to, you can learn from classic movies - howl at the sea, or look for tree holes to express your concerns.
14. Travel to a place that will never become a tourist attraction. If you find there is nothing to do when you get there, bring an extra copy of "One Hundred Years of Solitude" with you.
15. Watch a nonsensical movie or a popcorn TV series. "Nonsense" movies are a useful complement to a "running head" life.
16. Assisting a person without any benefit. Sometimes you don't think of the benefits of helping someone, just as you often don't need a reason to accept help from others.
17. Watch TV with your father and mother as you would with your children. If you can, take the kids and watch it with your mom and dad.
18. Make a kind exchange with a stranger. For example, when you are happy, you suddenly give a stranger a hug, or you just smile at him inexplicably on the subway.
19. Play games with your children. Sometimes we don’t wait to teach our children something, but we wait for our children to teach us something.

21. Create a funny joke of your own. Even if no one thinks you are funny because of it.
22. Research a useless topic. "Reading is useless" is not necessarily wrong - is it important that reading is useful?
23. Collect a traditional craft that has been nearly lost. For example, olive stone carving. Apprentices carve clay in the first year, wood in the second year, and only begin to carve olive stones in the third year. It takes five or six years to assemble each olive kernel into a larger craft. A waste of time, but often no profit.
24. Play games all night. Playing tractors, playing mahjong, and playing Three Kingdoms, as long as you are with friends you like.
25. Create something that cannot be patented. Chinese farmers are the most talented in this area. Every now and then there is news that they are assembling airplanes and flying them into the sky.
26. Stay at home. Staying home won't make it easier to pay off your mortgage, but it's better than working overtime and not being able to go home to pay off your mortgage.
27. Participate in a funny TV show. Even if you end up being the laughing stock of everyone. But you laugh too, don't you?

48. You know that regret is useless, but when you regret so much that you want to cry, please cry as much as you want.
